The markets are off to a tumultuous start to 2016, and that has many investors looking for safer places to stash their cash. The S&P 500 is already off more than 8%, which means the benchmark index has lost more than 1.7% per week on average for every full week of trading. If anything, it’s highly unlikely that markets will keep falling so quickly — at that pace, most of the stock market would evaporate by the end of the year.
Investors do have a few options for meaningful yield, though. The very downturn that has investors scurrying to find safe-havens has created a bevy of cheap dividend stocks to buy, most of which yield about two or three times the miserable yield on the 10-year. Let’s take a look at some of the best cheap dividend stocks in the stock market today: Xerox Corp (XRX), Fifth Third Bancorp (FITB), Ford Motor Company (F), Pearson PLC (ADR) (PSO), Staples, Inc. (SPLS), Huntsman Corporation (HUN), HP Inc (HPQ), UBS Group AG (USA) (UBS), Credit Suisse Group AG (ADR) (CS) and Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan (USA) (POT).
